Synthesis and structure–activity relationships of 2-aryl-4-oxazolylmethoxy benzylglycines and 2-aryl-4-thiazolylmethoxy benzylglycines as novel, potent PPARα …
The synthesis and follow-up SAR studies of our development candidate 1 by incorporating 2- aryl-4-oxazolylmethoxy and 2-aryl-4-thiazolylmethoxy moieties into the oxybenzylglycine framework of the PPARα/γ dual agonist muraglitazar is described. SAR studies indicate that different substituents on the aryloxazole/thiazole moieties as well as the choice of carbamate substituent on the glycine moiety can significantly modulate the selectivity of PPARα ...
